Audio containers and buttons
Audio containers and buttons are designed to give you quick and easy, single-click access to your library
of audio files for a DMP-8000 sign. Just click a file’s button and it will be (depending on your settings)
immediately played on the sign, or immediately added to the sign’s queue.
You may notice that this section looks a lot like the Quick Display Containers and Buttons section, and
you would be correct. To maintain a consistent interface, audio containers and buttons work in virtually an
identical manner to quick display containers and buttons. Therefore, if you’re already comfortable with
one container/button type, you’re already comfortable with both types!
Note: Audio Container/Button functionality is only available in Show Control Systems
containing a DMP-8000 display with supporting firmware. If a system does not contain a
supported DMP-8000, this functionality will not appear in the user interface.
